# Universal Search

> Find any player, team, news article, squad, or fan in one place

Universal Search is Buzzr's single search bar — surfaces players, teams, squads, news articles, and fans across every league and every surface.

## What you can search

* **Players** — by name, tap straight into a player profile with team + position metadata
* **Teams** — every team in every covered league
* **Leagues** — jump straight to a league dashboard or schedule
* **News articles** — recent articles across every covered league
* **Squads** — public squads searchable by name or vibe
* **Fans** — search by username or `#TAG` (e.g. `arnav#A1B2`)

## How to use it

Tap the search pill in the header. The pill is visible on every main tab. The bell icon is to the right; the profile avatar is the rightmost. Type any query — results group by category and update as you type.

## Speed

Search uses pg\_trgm GIN indexes on `profiles.username` and `user_tag` for sub-100ms username lookups. Player and team queries hit ESPN-resolved fixtures so the tap-target opens the right entity instantly.

## My Stuff coverage

Every search surface (players, squads, news) has a "My Stuff" filter that scopes results to entities you follow, are a member of, or have rated.

## Tap behavior

Tapping a result navigates straight to the entity:

* Player → Player detail with stat line, recent games, news
* Team → Team page with roster, schedule, dashboard pages
* News → Article reader with discussion thread
* Squad → Squad page with bracket leaderboard, members, chat
* Fan → Profile with ratings, takes, predictions

You can also long-press a result to share or save it.
